This photo was doubtless intended to be of that crane. It really didn't turn out too well, even after I cropped out a couple distractions. But it gives some sense of the scale of the yard, and that set of railfans facing every-which-way illustrates something about the outing. Our day at Two Harbors yard was an activity of the Missabe Railroad Historical Society . There were about fifty of us, and I got some terrific photographs. Railfans all carry cameras, and we're all accustomed to sharing photographic opportunities. As a group, we're far more aware of other photographers than your average tourist, and make conscious efforts to stay out of other shooters' lines of fire. With such a large group in a relatively small area, that makes for an interesting dynamic.... August, 1990; Minolta Freedom 100.

Best LARGE! DMIR 307, ready to push around a string of ore jennies at Two Harbors yard in August of 1990. She attracted a bunch of folks with cameras; I see seven, not counting m'self and anyone else who was up on the hill with me. Camera: Minolta Freedom 100
